Description

Series battery equalization device with multiple flyback converters
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of battery equalization of series-connected single batteries, in particular to a series-connected battery equalization device with a plurality of flyback converters.
Background
To meet the requirements of energy storage configurations, rechargeable batteries have been widely adopted in various fields such as renewable energy storage systems, electric vehicles, and telecommunications industries. Since the terminal voltage of a cell is low, in most applications, it is often necessary to connect a plurality of cells in series to form a battery module to achieve a desired voltage level.
However, imbalance between the respective unit cells in the battery module is a common phenomenon, such as a difference in terminal voltage, state of charge (SOC), and the like between the cells. This imbalance is caused by both intrinsic and extrinsic condition differences between the cells. Inherent differences are often limited by the manufacturing process and can only be minimized by optimizing the manufacturing and screening processes. The external operating condition differences include temperature differences and external auxiliary circuit differences. Non-uniform temperature distribution in the battery module may affect battery characteristics and cause performance variation, and higher operating temperature may increase capacity and power but may accelerate aging of the unit cells. Lower operating temperatures can reduce performance. External auxiliary circuits are used to detect, control and protect the cells, but these circuits consume different power from each cell, exacerbating the imbalance between cells.
The largest effect of battery imbalance is energy loss in the battery module. Generally, the battery with the lowest and highest end SOC will limit the performance of the entire battery module. A highly reliable, efficient Battery Management System (BMS) is critical for applications powered by rechargeable batteries, and cell balancing is one of the most important functions of a BMS. Cell balancing techniques help to distribute energy evenly among the cells. Without cell balancing, some of the capacity or energy in the battery module would be wasted, especially for long strings of series connected battery modules operating under frequent charge and discharge conditions.
In order to maintain the balance of the single batteries in the battery module, a plurality of balancing circuits, devices and methods have been proposed. At present, the circuits, devices and methods can be generally classified into three types, the first type is to make the overall parameters close to the single battery with lower SOC by releasing the energy of the single battery with higher SOC, the second type is to transfer the energy from the single battery with higher SOC to the single battery with lower SOC, and the third type is to control the charging and discharging process to ensure the balance between the batteries.
For the series-connected battery modules, the charging and discharging currents of all the batteries are equal, so the third type of equalization scheme is not suitable for the series-connected battery modules. The energy of the single battery with higher SOC released in the first solution is usually dissipated in energy dissipation elements such as resistors, which makes the whole device extremely inefficient. Combining the above discussion, the second category is a solution that is generally considered superior.
However, the existing equalizing device and method belonging to the second solution cannot always give consideration to the cost and the equalizing speed of the device. For example, the scheme of adding a set of equalization circuit to each single battery can achieve the fastest equalization speed, but the corresponding device cost will rise, and the complexity and reliability of the device will rise. However, a simple shared equalization circuit is often difficult to implement fast equalization, which is no longer applicable in a scenario with a high requirement on equalization speed.
